The Smiling Proud Wind and Cloud Chapter 86: The Bitter Northwest

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Trapped under the Hangu Pass, except for some Shaolin people who are worried, most people are still very satisfied.

    It's time to eat and drink.  Anyway, it's the imperial court who won't let it go, and it's not that they themselves are passively avoiding the war, so it's not shameful if it spreads.

    It's just right if you can't get out. The Demon Cult is in full swing now, so a fool is willing to go out and fight them desperately at this time.

    If it wasn't for avoiding the edge temporarily, why did everyone come to Guanzhong? It would be enough to go directly to reinforce Shaolin, and it's not that there is no other way.

    Idle is also idle, I don't know who took the lead, and social activities quickly became popular among the coalition forces.

    Holding a group to keep warm is also a means to improve the chances of survival on the battlefield.  Now the wine and meat friends on the table may be the nobles who give you a hand when they arrive on the battlefield.

    As the leader of the alliance, Li Mu did not escape communication.  Relying on his proficient business exchange skills, he soon became "forgetful friends" with the leaders of various sects.

    Once the relationship is well established, things will be easier to handle.  The coalition, which was originally loose and broken, finally condensed a little bit by relying on the fragile friendship of everyone.

    Even if the people below had conflicts, there were "senior Jianghu" to help mediate, and finally everything was blamed on the leader.

    However, Li Mu knew that all these were appearances.  In the case of not involving their own interests, everyone is happy to sell Huashan faction to save face.

    Once interests are involved, nothing will work.  Not to mention the face of the Huashan School, even the face of the Shaolin Temple is not a bird.

    In recent days, Monk Yuantong has visited many people.  It's a pity that everyone's words are beautiful, but when it's time to take practical actions, they become overwhelmed in an instant.

    They are all veterans of the rivers and lakes, who does not know the ferocity of the war between good and evil.  Once the scuffle breaks out, life and death can be decided instantly.

    Run away?

    Just think about it.  Unless it can be guaranteed that no one will see it, the next fate is social death.

    This is really "community death".  Not only is the reputation accumulated for most of his life gone, but even his own life has to be sacrificed.

    There is no need for other people to do it, the sect of your own will clean up the sect and give an explanation to Zhengdao Wulin

    Looking at the unruly man in Tsing Yi in front of him, Li Mu asked angrily: "Tell me, who sent you here, and what is your purpose?"

    Frankly speaking, he really doesn't want to have contact with people from the Demon Cult at this time.  It's just that curiosity made him couldn't help asking.

    Deep down in his heart, Li Mu had already made up his mind.  If there is no answer that satisfies him, he will sacrifice the flag to the guy named "Shangguan Yun" in front of him.

    Shangguan Yun sneered and said: "Leader Li, the so-called visitor is a visitor. I came all the way to visit on behalf of the divine religion. Why don't you let me see the tea? Could it be that you don't even understand the etiquette?"

    "Condor Hero", Li Mu felt that the people in the rivers and lakes in the original book must have made a mistake.  This is clearly a "sand sculpture".

    If it weren't for Li Mu's good self-cultivation, this "sand sculpture" would have become a dead sculpture now.

    Anyway, the plot has been changed beyond recognition, and it is not a big deal if another future elder of the Demon Cult dies.

    "An uninvited guest is a bad guest, and a bad guest should be chased away. You don't know such a simple truth, do you?"

    When encountering Lengtouqing, Li Mu didn't bother to hide it, and issued a warning directly.  "Zhuzhi" can also be "juzhi", everything depends on Shangguan Yun's next answer.

    I saw Shangguan Yun sighed, made a very disappointed expression, and said listlessly: "It seems that I, Shangguan Yun, will not be able to drink President Li's tea today.

    Originally, I heard that Leader Li was warm and hospitable, and Hallmaster Ren asked me to come all the way to give gifts. I didn¡¯t expect this kind of treatment. It seems that the Hallmaster must have misjudged the person

    "

    Apparently Shangguan Yun was not really stupid, he seemed to be complaining endlessly, but actually answered all the questions Li Mu raised.

    Hearing "Leader Ren", Li Mu thought to himself: Could it be that the head of the Demon Sect whose surname is Ren is Ren Woxing?

    I just don't know if he has come up with a star-absorbing method now.  Ren Woxing without the great method of absorbing stars is just an ordinary rising star of the Sun Moon God Sect, far from being outstanding.

    "Gifts, let's save money! Li is not interested in meeting a demon church master.

    It's almost the same as your leader Dugu Qingshan, no matter how bad it is, you have to play around.  The identities are not equal, and it is useless to say anything.

    Before I change my mind, take your gift and leave now, before it's too late.  "

    I have nothing to do with Ren Woxing.?Communication, sending people over to give gifts for no reason is obviously unreasonable.

    Regardless of what kind of gifts, Li Mu is not interested in knowing, he does not want to bear the notoriety of colluding with the Demon Cult.

    After listening to Li Mu's words, Shangguan Yun was not only not annoyed, but also flattered him with feigned admiration: "As expected of the leader of the alliance, the handwriting is magnificent.

    Thousands of houses and five thousand hectares of fertile land can be ignored if you don¡¯t want them. Sure enough, they are not comparable to us shallow-sighted old men.  "

    Li Mu frowned, "Thousands of houses, five thousand hectares of fertile land" is not something this young master can peek at.

    Looking at the entire Ming Dynasty, there are only a few vassals with such wealth.

    Aristocratic families must own more land, for example: the most famous Kong family.

    ?The land is spread all over the five provinces of Shandong, Henan, Hebei, Anhui, and Jiangsu, and it is more than ten thousand hectares?

    However, these lands belong to the entire family, not to a single member.

    I can't afford it, and it's impossible to accept it, so the target of gift giving can only be the Huashan School.

    Frankly speaking, as one of the overlords of the orthodox martial arts, the territory occupied by the Huashan faction really does not match its status.

    Most of the only 200,000 to 300,000 mu of land are distributed in deep mountains and old forests, mainly used to grow medicinal materials.

    With so many fields planted with medicinal materials, the data sounds scary, but it is actually the same.

    ?Different from the harvest of medicinal materials in previous lives, the medicinal materials planted now can be as short as three to five years, and as long as decades.  After a wave of planting, it will lie fallow for several years.

    Not only the planting period is long, but the yield is pitifully low.  In the long years of planting, there have been too many accidents, which are hard to guard against.

    ? If it comes to the yield, I am afraid that one hundred mu now cannot catch up with one mu in the previous life.  Of course, the effects of the medicine are also quite different.

    These medicinal materials that have grown for several years or more than ten years can be combined according to different formulas to prepare a medicinal bath that warms and nourishes the meridians, treats daily physical injuries, and assists in cultivation.

    As far as Li Mu knows, there is a hundred-year-old medicine field in the gate, hidden in the Qinling Mountains, and the medicinal materials planted in it are even hundreds of years old.

    These are all sect backgrounds.  But even if the ancestors paved the way, it is still very difficult to get together a set of pills.

    ? Even the Shaolin Temple with the deepest heritage still needs six years to gather the medicinal materials needed for a pair of Great Returning Pills.  The output of Xiaohuandan is slightly higher, and it only comes out once every ten years.

    The main reason is that the reduction of the aura of the heavens and the earth has brought about bad results. Originally, it can be used for alchemy after a hundred years of growth, but now it has to be grown for hundreds of years to be effective.

    The Huashan faction was even worse. Although there was inheritance in this area, the pills Li Mu saw were all used in daily healing.

    The elixir that can greatly increase internal strength and break through bottlenecks has always been wanted in the door, but it is a pity that the medicinal materials that meet the needs have not been gathered for a long time.

    The medicinal materials are not enough for self-use, so naturally no economic benefits can be generated.  Although the remaining land grows food, Guanzhong is often dry and rainless, so there is not much output at all.

    Whether or not we can be self-sufficient in food depends on whether God gives us face.

    ?Compared to other sects that are keen on land annexation and occupy a large amount of land, the Huashan sect is simply obscenely obedient.

    In agricultural society, land is always the most precious wealth.  The Huashan School, which almost gave up land income, is also an alternative in the martial arts.

    Of course, the Huashan faction is not alone. The major factions in the Northwest Wulin are all equally hard-pressed.  Even if you occupy a large amount of land, you don't want to have much harvest.

    Compared with the martial arts forces in other regions, there is no rich one in the Northwest.  It can be said that one family is poorer than one family.
